Delta Sigma Pi Frat Plaits To
Institute Dance Ad Annual
Affair
"We intend to institute the Commerce
Ball as an annual social event
at the University, and each year add
new features and make efforts to increase
its popularity," Perry J. Crandall,
president of Delta Sigma Pi, international
commerce fraternity, said
today.
About 225 attended the first annual
v ball held at the Hotel Columbia, Mr.
Crandall stating that it proved a success
both socially and financially.
Although Delta Sigma Pi is primarily
a professional commerce fraternity,
its growth and development
has been on such broad plans that
twenty of the fifty-eight chapters now
occupy their own houses and have a
social rating as well as a professional
rating.
In connection with an extensive professional
campaign to be put on during
the remainder of the college year,
Dr. S. M. Derrick, of the economics
department, will talk to the chapter
on the facts and figures available
through the Department of Commerce
and their use on February 26.
The public and especially students
in the School of Commerce arc in-4
vitcd to attend this subsequent meeting.

Handwriting
Revelations
By Bonnie Kate Barnes
Professor Oscar L. Keith
Here goes some handwriting dope
on the head of the Romance language
department: Oscar L. Keith.
Professor Koith's outstanding
characteristic is a bad temper, which
is very, very bad. He. is a candid,
sarcastic, outspoken person, yet always
courteous in manner and bearing.
A great deal of taste, refinement,
and mental culture are indicated. In
addition to this Professor Keith has a
keen sense of humor. All these
characteristics combined result in a
thoroughly facinating personality.
He has strong powers of imagination
and is interested in the unusual
and loves the marvelous. Very probably
he reads detective stories. He
talks well, as well as talking a great
deal. A slight tendency to exaggerate
is indicated. Making friends is the
least of his worries, for he makes them
easily, and has a great many of them.
Probably this ability is due to the fact
that he is so quick, vivacious, and antiniatcd,
and is such a good conversationalist.
Prof. Keith is extremely self-reliant
and aggressive; he is tenacious, possessing
also organizing ability, executive
ability, and a logical type of mind
that grasps problems easily and thinks
rapidly. In addition to this his intelligence
is far above the average. He
does not build air castles. He is not
lazy.
It would be extremely imprudent to
try to put anything over on Professor
Keith, because he is incredulous
and not susceptible to flattery.
Is he conceited? You are asking.
He is in a very extensive way. But
remember, students, when endeavoring
to bluff in French that it can not
be done.
